October 2020 Senior Photographs for the Yearbook Inside This Issue School-to-Career 2 The deadline for senior photographs for the yearbook is December 18. Photographs ACT/SAT 3 can be turned in as printed pictures, digitally on a CD or jump drive, or emailed to Calendar of Events 4 [email protected]. If you are sending them digitally, make sure they are at Did You Know 5 a high resolution or the reproduction in the yearbook will be unsatisfactory. Internet Safety Class 6 ACT Method Prep 7 Conferences 8 Senior portraits must meet the following criteria to be used in the yearbook: Contact Information 9 · Head-and-shoulders shot, or can be cropped to head-and-shoulders shot · No hats or hands · Shoulders should be clothed · Color (not black and white or duo-tone) · Plain background (It can be outside) · Vertical picture The rationale behind these regulations is that head size remains consistent among all pictures and that all portraits command the same amount of attention rather than one individual standing out on the page. If you have any questions about the requirements or want the yearbook adviser to look at a photograph to see if it meets requirements, contact Kim Warren at [email protected] or 309-3798. Yearbook staff members are also available to take a senior portrait for the yearbook. Students can contact Kim Warren in room 2117 to set up an appointment to do this. The Inter-State Studio pictures can also be used. The yearbook staff has access to these photos, but students need to let Mrs. Warren know they want those pictures to be used. 1 School-to-Career Corner Clubs and Activities: Extracurricular activities provide a channel for reinforcing the lessons learned in the classroom, offering students the opportunity to apply academic skills in a real-world context. Recent research published by the National Center for Education Statistics suggests that participation in extracurricular activities may increase students' sense of engagement or attachment to their school, and thereby decrease the likelihood of school failure and dropping out. Extra curricular clubs and activities are still happening at SHSS. Students are encouraged to contact the sponsors if they are interested. Wow!

  • Title: the Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher's Guide of 20Fh Century Physics
    REPORT NSF GRANT #PHY-98143318 Title: The Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher’s Guide of 20fhCentury Physics DOE Patent Clearance Granted December 26,2000 Principal Investigator, Brian Schwartz, The American Physical Society 1 Physics Ellipse College Park, MD 20740 301-209-3223 [email protected] BACKGROUND The American Physi a1 Society s part of its centennial celebration in March of 1999 decided to develop a timeline wall chart on the history of 20thcentury physics. This resulted in eleven consecutive posters, which when mounted side by side, create a %foot mural. The timeline exhibits and describes the millstones of physics in images and words. The timeline functions as a chronology, a work of art, a permanent open textbook, and a gigantic photo album covering a hundred years in the life of the community of physicists and the existence of the American Physical Society . Each of the eleven posters begins with a brief essay that places a major scientific achievement of the decade in its historical context. Large portraits of the essays’ subjects include youthful photographs of Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, and Richard Feynman among others, to help put a face on science. Below the essays, a total of over 130 individual discoveries and inventions, explained in dated text boxes with accompanying images, form the backbone of the timeline. For ease of comprehension, this wealth of material is organized into five color- coded story lines the stretch horizontally across the hundred years of the 20th century. The five story lines are: Cosmic Scale, relate the story of astrophysics and cosmology; Human Scale, refers to the physics of the more familiar distances from the global to the microscopic; Atomic Scale, focuses on the submicroscopic This report was prepared as an account of work sponsored by an agency of the United States Government.
